That is your opinion, and from a technical standpoint false. The range and scope of autotrans on the road today is large; they are far from the "all the same"... As far as your mention of sport bikes, PDK is the closest thing to sport bike shifting a car will ever see... I used to speed shift my KZ900 all the time with out engaging the clutch.

As for PDK not letting the driver make mistakes... BS, PDK will smack right into the rev limiter and bounce up against it until the dolt behind the wheel up shifts. It actually took me about an hour to get somewhat proficient with the PDK manual mode, and I'm sure I could be better with it.
